@N0tIaing ia the Paper

There is nothing in the paper" said a
young friend, dashing it on the floor; mo
news at all; it is miserable, stupidn' Look
again, my friend, at the carefully printed
columns, the different headings, foreign,
home and domestic news, the wit and
humor. Think, for q moment, when you
gaze at it, how the overtaxed editor has
tried to please you. There is probably no
class of men more overworked than these,
no labor more wearing than mental labor.
It is SO easy to cry out ''nothing in the
paper for those who know little of the
drndgery, the painstaking, the hours of
mental WEAKNESS, the tedious compost
tfons. No paper can be printed, with its
carefully prepared columns, containing
nothing, unless the editors, reporters and
printers are all fools, which is a matter
too absurd to be suggested.
1t is a common saying, when a person is
not exactly suited, to exclaim there is
| once observed two gentlemen purchase
copies of the same edition of a paper; one
gazing over his handed it across to a neigh
Dor, exelaiming, sIIere Sam, have the
morning paper? There is nothing in it to-
day; it is hardly worth lending" The
other gentleman took his, and continued
to be absorbed. Presently the man by his
side asked him what interested him SO
much. He replied, Everything; the paper
is well gotten up this morning; the editori-
ais are especially fine" This proves that
what pleases one does not suit another.
Be assured it is nc child's play to edit and
conduct a newspaper; it is a very serious,
tedious, important, responsible position,
and the man who manages a well circulat-
ed, satisfactory newspaper has almost the
wisdom of a Solomon. Let those who
doubt it take the editors place for a while;
nothing more is needed to cure a grum-
bier, Our friend, when she is tempted to
make such sin wremarks, had better pause
to consider whether the fault be in the
paper or her silly little head.-Eschonge.

The first Convention of the Young No
mans Christian Temperance Unions of Sa
lem County was held at Pcnnsgrove, on
Thursday of last week. Delegations were
present from Salem and Hancock's Bridge,
and young members of the w. C. T. [.
from other places.
The exercises began at 10.3 80 a. NJ, with
Miss Abbie l.. Kidd in the chair. After
the congregation sang "Nearer my God to
Thee" she read a passage of scripture from
Isaiah, and followed it by prayer and sing
ing again. Miss Kidd then spoke of the
growth of the VS. beginning with % mem
bers in Salem two years ago, and o
numbering nearly 800 il the county; and
also the object of the meeting, which was
to become more interested in the work and
induce others to join them. Their object
was the destruction of the liquor traffic.
Mrs. Pauline W. Holme not being pres
ent, Miss Kidd read her report of the Sa-
1885, with 90 members. There are now
airy. They hold meetings every two
weeks which are alternately business
and social, when there are readings
on temperance, health, heredity and
social purity. A normal class for Kitchen
Garden work has been raised, and Mary c.
McClees, National Superintendent of X.
G. W, was employed to give instructions
DR.. Susan p. Stackhouse was also employ
ed to give a course of lectures. They have
had, also, many popular speakers with
them. Besides the dues of the 17G men,
bers they have raised s537 ,02 by entertain
ments.
Mary Harris reported for the Young Peo-
pies Union of Hancock's Bridge, that they
organized in May, 1885, with ten members,
and now they have 46. They meet weekly
at the residences of the members, and have
literary exercises, readings and Rotations,
and extracts from temperance papers.
Miss Nettie Denny reported that the
Pennsgrove Us were organized in July,
1886, with 81 members, and now number
CO, with 5 honorary members. Their plan
of work is about the same as Others.
The Woodstown Union was not repre-
sented at the Convention, and consequent
ly was not reported.
The reports of superintendent of De
partments show that Salem's Band OF
Hope numbers 800, and the Pennsgrove
Band 20.
The election of County officers being de
ferred, the meeting concluded with an adj
dress by Mrs. Anna M. Bruen, the State
Superintendent of the US.
